Greetings From England.
BALTIMORE, Nd, Dec. 15.-The American
Federation OF Labor shortly after opening
yesterday went into executive session,
from which reporters were excluded. The
session was taken up in receiving the re-
port OF officers and various committees
and in discussing the merits of the up
plicatiOn for a charter Of the Journey
men ShOemakers' Union Of New York
against which application protests have
been entered by District assembly No. 81 OF
New York. The charter was refused on
the ground that they had disobeyed the
order Of the organization with which they
were connected, they having refused an
order OF the Knights of Labor to go out on
a strike. The officers reports were re-
ferred to appropriate committees. A chart
er was granted to the Brotherhood Of
Painters and Decorators of America.
In the afternoon "a letter was read from
Henry Broadhurst, chairman of the Trades
Unions Parliamentary Committee OF Eng
land, asking the federation 10 send a repre-
sentative to the international convention to
be held in London next year, and one from
the Russian merican National League OF
New York, asking the federation to use its
influence to prevent passage by Congress
of an extraction treaty with Russia.

natl Typographical Union, offered Il resOlu-
ton condemning the boycott instituted by
the Knights of Labor against the New

Der of resolutions were introduced and the.

FoRT WORTH. Tex, Dec. 15.-In No-Man's-
Land, or the Neutral Strip. there are 10000
people, but they have no State or Terri

what courts have jurisdiction. A promi-
nent cattleman of Hansford County and
two citizens Of Sherman County have lost
a number of cattle which were driven into
NO-Man's-Land by thieves, and they pro-
pose to see what Governor Ross can do to
protect Texas property, although ne has no
control over No-Man's- Land. The cattle
stolen from Texas are killed for their
hides, it being only q rare thing
that choice cuts OF meat are taken. The
thieves are defiant, for no law can reach.

The other afternoon the citizens of
Owensboro, KY, observed an immense
balloon sailing over the city at great
height. 1t was within view for long
time. but when last seen it appeared to
be rapidly descending. Parties went
in search of it and it was found in an
old swamp about ten miles south of
Hawesville. The searching party were
Mortified at the discovery of the enact
ated remains of man who had been
evidently cmptied from the basket sew
eral yards from where the air ship had
fallen. 1t was the theory of those who
found the balloon and the body that
the aeronaut was already dead before
the balloon reached the earth, as no
serious bruises were found upon the
body. No paper or other evidences
were found to indicate who the unfor-
tunate man could be.
